Re: Transporting Engineering Events
That's probably what we'd do. If we went. Nothing wrong with that.

Re: Transporting Engineering Events
Our team has our own trailer, so our coach and principle are driving up a day before.
I'm still worried about my trajectory machine though. Are there any quick-fix ways to keep my device safe without spending hours making a box? I don't want anythign to break or come loose (worst nightmare ever)

Re: Transporting Engineering Events
Spare parts. You've got to have them. Use tape where necessary, then check when you get there to make sure nothing's broken. If there is something broken, fix it, and be extra careful before competition.
